View of GUI during TX

Postby JJ4SDR » Sun Mar 24, 2024 12:52 am

I have never even thought about this previously and fell to thinking only after a buddy of mine saw the GUI when I TX as it appears quite different. Also, I have not thought of making any changes to the appearance as the radio has been working great. I have provided 2 images of GUI durint TX below.

1). The numbers abutting against the left edge of the Panadapter in my case (or Panafall in his case) are all negative.

2). My buddy's GUI during TX has a red center line (I assume that can be set on one of the apperance/display/ forms), but the numbers range between negative AND positive. His TX signal "spikes" above 0 also and I don't get even close to that as you can tell from the image.

I am not sure I need to emulate the way his GUI looks like, but in case I did, what it the parameter(s) that I would need to tweak to copy the appearance his GUI has?

The settings you are looking for are found in Setup > Display > RX1, RX2 and TX.

You will primarily be concerned with the RX spectrum grid settings and the TX grid scale settings. Note that RX settings can be set individually for each band. Rather than try to describe them in detail I'd suggest just playing with them a bit to see what they do.

Note also that when you mouse over the scale on the panadapter (RX or TX) the cursor will change to a hand icon and you can left-click-drag the scale to change the reference level and/or ctrl-left-click-drag the scale to change dB/division.
